I have one. Highly recommended if not a bit expensive.

I've had one for a few years now. By far the best one I've had.

Expensive but definitely worth it.

Over-engineered and overpriced. This is what you want, a proper man's capper with no whoosie levers. for the limp-wristed to get tangled up in their pettycoats. Yeah, if it needs capping, a good belt with a hammer is exactly what's called for.

I use one similar to this:

It has given faultless service for many years. Much cheaper than a floorstander

Agreed - and still amazingly cheap. As most I started out with the two-handled capper and when it finally conked out, plus breakages, got the bench capper. Never looked back....

Same here, use one the same as this for my Cider and Beer, very happy with it. Mine is yellow.
And will do Champagne bottles too.

I’ve brought it now. Thanks for your comments.

I had a dry run with it. Really easy to use and I like the easy to move height adjustment.
I got it from Malt miller,
I was actually looking for a floor capper.
I asked the guy, Mark I think, which do you think is the best one, he recommended this one, more expensive he said, but a great bit of kit.
So refreshing, these days, people just won’t give their opinion, which clearly I needed, not having done it before!
I’m really pleased with it, very sturdy and simple to use.
